Description:
|
|
In the early 1950s Chagall experimented with painted ceramics, to which he applied his familiar motifs. (In this case betrothed lovers.) During a decade he produced 220 ceramic works. In Chagall's "vase-sculptures", the handles and feet of the ceramics become arms, busts, legs and wings, accentuating their anthropomorphic or zoomorphic character. This piece is slip-cast, decorated with slips and oxides and engraved (sgraffito) with a knife and dry point.
